Hi,

In advance thanks you

I've added the new resource at the end of its section.

Do you think you really did this? Also, can you explain why it should be in this list considering it has 5 stars on GitHub?

It's been 2 years since I made this library. I am the author and look if see it exists elsewhere. Sorry I thought that the objective of your repository is to highlight awesome javascript library ? "awesome-javascript". I didn't know you had to have a lot of stars to find him awesome. I'm confused about awesome word (if awesome=="more stars" continue else invalid). Sorry for inconvenience ☺️

If you can think of any other metric, feel free to chip in your ideas here: #731
It's been exactly 1 year since I created the isssue and there's still no alternative to stars to measure popularity/acceptance.

Don't get me wrong, I personally value all open source work, that's not the problem here. Problem here is, if you tell a project is awesome, it must be awesome outside of your own boundaries. Is anime.js awesome? Yes it is. It has 40k stars and a community around it. It has a very detailed documentation, examples on CodePen and a dedicated webpage. I really don't want to compare apples and oranges, but you probably guess where I'm heading already. I'm not saying Animate.js is not awesome. I'm only saying it has a little bit of more time until we, collectively all of us, start calling it awesome.

Not about awesomeness, but you also added your link as a first item. Which is not a cool thing to do, considering there're hundred of other links already added before. Until that changes, it doesn't matter if Animate.js is the most popular library in the world, it'll not get in anyway.

Rules are rules, and they're clear.
